The Business

Corporate risk and broking

We know how companies can unlock potential through effective risk management.  Our clients rely on us to craft strategies to quantify, mitigate, and transfer risk, taking advantage of our specialist industry experience and unparalleled market know-how. The result is a new way of embracing risk that drives superior results.

The Role

Our Risk Management Practice is expanding its business and claims defensibility services which advises our clients on risk and the defensibility of injury claims.

This role is varied and will involve delivering an audit based service designed to assess our clients’ liability arrangements in identifying their ability to defend claims.  This involves making practical recommendations and working with our clients to implement measures in improving their defence prospects. We also provide an audit based service which involves auditing third party providers in the handling of claims on behalf our clients. Previous auditing experience in this area would therefore be desirable.
